I think Jiang Wen may be laughing, angry, and scolding: "Damn it." Just like the crazy-looking disabled old man in the film.
I haven't watched much of Jiang Wen's films, but the one that impressed me the most was "Let the Bullets Fly". In terms of quality, it is indeed a good film. Unfortunately, before watching the film, I had already watched Ma Shitu's "Ten Stories of Night", so I was very disgusted with the changes in the film. Therefore, Jiang Wen did not leave me one. What a good impression, that is, Zhang Xmou and his ilk.
However, after watching "The Devil is Coming", my impression of him has completely changed. To be honest, after I made up my mind to write a review of this film, I was actually hesitant to watch it again. Out of respect for the film, I want to watch it again, but as a girl with a national-chauvinist inclination, I am afraid of details, because I know very well that this is the truth that we are most afraid to face.
Hang Jiatai, the name is fucking ironic.
And the person who always muttered, "The Great Wall is still there today, no less than Qin Shi Huang was back then", which made me feel extremely cold. In this village, as the name suggests, all the people are thinking about peace of mind, thinking that everything can be dealt with peacefully, so innocent and scary. The only old man with a spirit of resistance is a disabled person with more than enough energy. At the end of the film, Ma Dasan raised his weapon to the Japanese. This was actually the awakening of national consciousness. At that moment, I especially hoped that the national officer could let him go out of national consciousness, but he was still killed or defeated. The people of the country were killed by the orders of their own compatriots! This is really very similar to China. All the people don't want to resist, they just want to go on like that. Those who want to resist either have enough energy, or just like Ma Dasan, they will be killed by their compatriots. They want to kill thieves, but they are powerless to return to the sky. They can only "die as they should", but are they really "happy and happy"!
We Chinese nation, what is it?
I have also read a lot of history books, I have seen China's prosperity, I have also seen China's grief and resistance, and I have seen China's revival and prosperity.
But at that moment, I was at a loss.
We can kill our compatriots without hesitation, and we can watch it as a good show when our compatriots are killed, but when facing foreign enemies, we always like to fight within ourselves, and we are always happy to do it anytime and anywhere. . But why, in the face of the executioner, we can be so hesitant! What is there to hesitate! Please tell me!
Chinese, when did you know how to reflect!
Maybe I am not qualified to speak to you, because I am also a cowardly Chinese, a stupid Chinese.
At this point, I don't know what I'm talking about anymore, I feel very tired and helpless. This film is very similar to Shokhorov's "The Encounter of a Man", where everything is true and everywhere is helpless. I suddenly remembered that in the modern history class two days ago, the teacher played the documentary "Nanjing". Facing the bloody Nanjing Massacre, the students laughed very happily.
And I didn't even have the guts to reprimand.
The Japanese are the bastards, but we Chinese, but in our time, isn't that the case?
